I had to wait in line 2 hrs to get into the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco, but we saw it. The flower is named after its odor, which resembles rotting meat to entice scavenger insects into pollinating it. It smells truly foul. 8/10 experience, highly recommend.

Also, how do i make Alt text for an image post?

    Do you think that’s because they named it before they saw it bloom? It’s a great name, but omits the signature feature of the plant. Probably because it’s special move is so rare.

      I wouldn’t say calling it something-something-phallus omits its signature feature.
